Abstract

Let ff be a real-valued function defined on R\mathbb{R}, with f(0)0f(0) \neq 0 and which is not constant in non empty open intervals. We prove the equations \begin{equation}\label{edif} \left\{ \begin{array}{rcll} (-\Delta )^{s}u & = & f(u), & \text{in }B_{1}, \\ u & = & 0, & \text{in }B_{1}^{c}, \end{array} \right. \end{equation} where (Δ)s(-\Delta )^{s} is the ss-fractional Laplacian, 0<s<10< s <1, have no solutions in C2(B1)C^{2}(\overline{B_{1}}), if d>2sd>2s. The proof is based on the moving plane method and in the approximation of C2(B1)C^{2}(\overline{B_{1}}) functions by ss-harmonic functions.
